Comment to React Jot update
  • The pipeline is Dolphin 7.4 (almost done, a few days left), UNA 9.1 and then JOT 1. Note that current Messenger in UNA is getting own updates separate from JOT cycle - they share a lot of code, but current Messenger will only be replaced by JOT when it’s absolutely production-ready. 

    • Aha! I suspected Alexey to test the hybernation, but no! :-)
      What I do not understand with React Jot, it will work on mobile only as an overlay? Or will it work on all devices, much like a special template? Not clear for me ....

      • React Jot Update is going to be the mobile version?

        • It's a ReactJS shell, which will be used as a website interface but designed to be responsive same as Jot Messenger - switching between 1/2/3 column modes. 

          In the meantime, we ALSO work on ReactNative apps, which will provide ability to enable push notifications in iOS and will also give some native UI elements like side menu, launch bar, search box, etc. The trick is that when you're using the site features in WebView it may end up feeling not as smooth and fast as a native app, but if you're using a ReactJS frontend in WebView it would feel just like a native app. 

          In other words - React JOT is NOT a mobile app per se, but it is part of the structure of the mobile app.
